The Monster Hidden in My Heart NO. 20
"Alright." Looking straight at himself, the unwavering Hachiguma, Niji nodded slightly, and the purple pupils appeared instantly. The three small satellites in his left eye and the two small satellites in his right eye slowly began to rotate.
Vast!
Rumble... Hachigane looked into Niji's eyes, his eyes filled with bewilderment, and his mind began to recall the scene of his parents' death, as well as the conversation between Sanda and Kumajiro at that time.
Although the mystery of Uchiha Sasuke's 'Moon Reading' is unknown, Nii however uses his Dojutsu to create his own illusion technique, Sennen, invading the opponent's mental space, but the one who grasps the rules of space is Yakumo.
Looking at the already tear-stained Hachiguma, Niji let out a sigh, but found that Hachiguma's face turned even paler, her eyes filled with icy despair. Not daring to hesitate, he touched... The sound of shattering glass, the entire space became a dull gray, filled with a feeling that chilled one's heart and soul. This was Hachiguma's mental space, and also the true state of her inner self - beneath the flower-like girl lay a dark and desolate landscape.
Ning Ci's figure appeared in front of Bayun, who was kneeling on the ground. "Let's go, I'll take you to see your enemy, the one who really killed your parents."
She lifted her head in shock, her pale face filled with clear tears, and her eyes were icy cold. "The one who killed my parents is myself. What do you mean by saying that? Don't worry, I won't commit suicide. I will become your subordinate and follow your orders."
Shaking his head, disregarding Bayun's struggles, Ning Ci dragged Bayun towards a distant dark place. A strange pit appeared in the distance, and Ning Ci pulled Bayun inside. After many twists and turns, Ning Ci finally heard the sound of scratching and biting coming from afar, knowing he had found the lair.
Looking at Yaiba beside him, Niiro coldly said: "The one inside is your enemy, the one who killed your parents. Don't think it's you, it's just a monster that wants to erode your body. If you can't resist its temptation and take revenge on Konohagakure, killing the person who cares about you, Hinata Hyuga, you will be completely eroded by it, and it will completely replace you, becoming the master of this body. At that time, you will be a complete monster!"
Looking at Yaiba, who was stunned by his own words, Nii made a pause. "It's because it obscured the true nature of things that your misunderstanding of Konoha and the Will of Fire deepened, and so did your resentment. Your resentment is what makes it a powerful supplement. Have you thought this through? Are you going to kill it and become a genjutsu ninja with great potential, fulfilling your parents' expectations or their last wish, or are you just going to give up on yourself, forget about the hopes of your clan and parents, and follow them in death?"
"Ah..." Yakumo's body trembled violently, clear tears streaming down her face and falling onto the dark ground. "I'll kill it!" Yakumo's entire demeanor changed in an instant, no longer the weak and timid girl from before, she took a step forward.
Ning followed behind, looking at the monster in the depths, the strange hand that was tearing at the red wall suddenly stopped, turned around, and its ugly face appeared before Ning and Yakumo.
"You, how did you end up here? And earlier, why did I feel a wave of weakness? Have your feelings of hatred towards Konohagakure, the village that brought you to this state, lessened? What's going on?" The hoarse and unpleasant voice sounded like two pieces of shattered glass scraping against each other, making it even more nauseating with that face.
"What the... Who is this annoying person and why can he come here, have you been charmed by him? In that case, I'll just kill him!" The monster Id said to Ningci, its long and sharp fingernails raised to its chest.
At this time, Ning Ci finally confirmed his own ability. Although he had used the Purple Pupil's ability on those escaped Shinobi before, they were all one soul, but Hachigane was a person with two souls. Although one of them was an extension of Hachigane himself, their personalities and methods were completely different, just like two people.
The space we are in now is the consciousness space of this monster, Ido, which is constantly eroding Hachigata's consciousness. Niji has taken control of Hachigata's consciousness space and is certain that he can handle Ido. Although this monster possesses an unusually strong and mysterious chakra, it is still not at its strongest state. It is a creature that grows by continuously absorbing Hachigata's resentment, and compared to how it will be in a year, the current one is not very strong.
Although Ning Ci couldn't fully control this space, he could still be unaffected by it, meaning the laws of this space couldn't restrict him. With his ability to use ninjutsu, Ning Ci was confident in taking down this monster.
"Yakumo, are you going to kill it yourself or let me do it?" With a sense of confidence in his heart, Ning looked at the monster showing off its strength and asked Yakumo calmly.
Yakumo's eyes were filled with a sense of bewilderment, clearly staring at the monster. Yakumo recalled the memories that had been sealed in her heart and thoroughly believed what Niji showed her. With an ever-changing expression, Yakumo heard Niji's words and came to her senses.
"Looking for death!" The monster heard Ning Ci speak like this and said viciously, its body quickly rushing towards Ning Ci. Sharp claws swiped at Ning Ci's body, and several giant arms appeared in the void, chasing after Ning Ci.
"I'll take care of it myself!" With an icy tone, Hachirou's hand grasped the brush scraper, and he took step by step towards the monster.
Ning nodded and dodged the monster's attack, quickly appearing beside Yayoi. The monster charged over with its teeth bared.
"Whoa...... I never thought Yakumo would attack it, Hakuren's brush pierced straight into the monster's forehead,"
"Why is that so? Haven't I done everything you hoped for?" With a despairing cry, the creature dissolved into nothingness.
Looking at the girl who was panting heavily, her body trembling but still refusing to sit down, he knew she hadn't fully come to terms with it. Her beloved parents had been killed by the monster born from her own heart, and the guilt in her heart was beyond mention. Ning didn't know how to comfort her now. At this time, the eerie space began to change, the dense holes slowly disappearing, and the space where Ning and the girl were became the grayish consciousness space of Yiyun, which was slightly brighter than before, but the change was very small.
Ning's hands began to form a seal, and the entire space changed once again. It transformed into Ning's conversation with Hong last night and this morning. Yiyun's dull eyes started to change, gradually becoming more spirited.
Seeing Yagumo like this, Niji also put his mind at ease and exited Yagumo's mental space.
Sitting on the chair, Ningci's forehead broke out in a cold sweat. At first, it was okay to say, but after Yagumo killed that monster, his entire Chakra and spiritual power had increased greatly. Ningci's use of this illusion technique was not yet very skilled, and the final scene almost couldn't be recreated, consuming an enormous amount of Chakra.
The vacuum layer in the room was about to lose control, and Ning Ci also saw Yayuki open his eyes, with color restored to them.
"Alright, I won't say anything else. All I can tell you is that none of this is your fault. When you get back, I'll have Hong come visit you. That's all, I'm leaving now!"
Having finished speaking, Ning Ci quickly sealed the imprint and disappeared into a wisp of white smoke.
Liu Xiaoyun sat on the bed, her expression changing unpredictably, with a hint of expectation in her eyes.
Back home, Ning saw Hong pacing back and forth in the living room with some anxiety. Seeing Ning return, Hong hurriedly walked up to him.
"Alright, you can go see her now." Ning Ci said weakly, walking towards the room. He was really exhausted. Maintaining a vacuum layer in one room, plus using the Chakra-consuming technique "Cang Mang" twice in a row, made Ning Ci feel like he had used up more than half of his Chakra. This feeling was really unpleasant, much more tiring than using several large-scale Ninjutsu techniques continuously. The key was that his mental strength was consumed too much, making him feel extremely fatigued.
"Nothing's wrong with you, right?" Hong asked with some concern, looking at Ning Ci who seemed extremely exhausted.
"It's okay, you go see her now, I think she needs you right now, it doesn't matter to me." Ning Ci replied softly.
Hong looked at Ning Ci and indeed didn't see anything wrong, maybe it was just that his chakra consumption was too great. He was worried about Yayoi's current situation in his heart, nodded, and ran towards the mountain villa outside the village.
